Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Children’s Health

Join us this Sunday afternoon on the Special Needs Family Hour at 1:00 pm!
Our guest is Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.  He is the founder and Chairman of the Board for the nonprofit Children’s Health Defense. We will discuss the ethics of the current vaccine program for children in the United States. Robert is an advocate for children who have been harmed by vaccines. 

“The greatest crisis that America faces today is the chronic disease epidemic in America’s children.” – Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

Background:
Robert Kennedy is an attorney specializing in environmental law. For over three decades, he has been one of the world’s leading environmental advocates. He is the founder and president of Waterkeeper Alliance, the umbrella group for 350 local waterkeeper organizations, in 46 countries, that track down and sue polluters. Under his leadership, Waterkeeper has grown to become the world’s largest clean water advocacy organization.

Around 2005, parents of vaccine-injured children began discovering Mr. Kennedy’s speeches and writings about the toxic mercury-based preservative thimerosal. They embraced new hope that this environmental champion would finally expose the truth about vaccine injury and win justice for injured children. Kennedy is known for his fierce and relentless brand of environmental activism and his advocacy for transparent government and rigorous science. He is now applying his tenacious energies and sophisticated strategies to exposing the fraud and corruption within the CDC and the pharmaceutical industry.

“Mr. Kennedy does not hesitate to call out those with questionable ethics. If he were not telling the truth, these individuals and organizations would shut him down. Instead, he is ignored and not even allowed to debate the issues in the public arena.” – Julie Clark Ames
